Does the device use ZLoader?
If you mean Zyxel bootloader, then no. The board utilizes U-boot with
some PandoraBox patches according to the logo printed to the serial
console.
Is a recovery mode available? (maybe document it in the commit)
Vendor does not mention any recovery mode in the documentation. You
could connect to the serial console and use regular U-boot commandы to
recover the firmware.
Ok, the ZBT device I have has a recovery mode accessible pressing the reset
button I guess, not mentioned in the docs as well if memory serves me well.
Does it require LZMA loader for 5.10?
Did not test with the 5.10 kernel, but looks like it should run
smoothly on the board. What are the specific requirements for LZMA
loader usage besides the kernel size limitation? 5.10 is not smaller
than 5.4. So, if the 5.4 based firmware requires the LZMA loader to
boot with a typical MT7621 U-boot, then 5.10 will require it too.
Oh, I was only worried about size. didn't know it was already in use, didn't
check the patch, sorry.
Thanks!!
